or they somehow still find a way to not work. I can count the number of times i had an appimage just work, and it is exactly 2. Any other time i had crashes
AppImage is the no-nonsense universal package format.

Absolutely my favorite. Just download and go. Super portable.
The lack of package management sucks though

AppImages have a lot of problems
Like not updating or shared dependencies duplicated for every single app image
Just use flatpak
